Ignition powder which Mosina kept

his wife and their tour little children,
were burned to death.

BLAINE's STRENGTH.

I We, says an eminent politician Of good
/ Judgment. believe that Blaine can not
only carry more States than auy other
candidate. but that he can sarry New
York; and be can carry more votes in
New York than any other man the Re-
J publican party can nominate.
It isstil that Blaine failed in 1891
But Foraker filled in 1852. anil won in
1881 AMI 80 Harrison fafl,-I in 50
aud won IN 40 Jackson faiIediu 1924
md va, elected in 1923 and 1882
II il true Blaine was not elected in
1884. but Le received a higher vote than
my Republican candidate for President
ever rcce we'd
Il is trae that he did not carry New
York, but be received a highr vote
than any Republican ever received in
tina, Safe
1t is true that Blaine wis defeated ia
Ncw York by a majority If l O47; but
it is also true that tue majority against
tile Republicans in New York wa. 49,
200 the year before, and 102 600 two
year, before, and ID, 900 in 1885. 5000
10 1886. and l6, 600 in 1887
Blaine. therefore, has carried more
strength in New York than any Repub-
lean that ever ran in the State before
or since
Sherman. it is said, can carr more
votes IN New York than Blaine on ac-
count Of his record as a anancicr But
it would be fatal to run him on such
record for nothing would defeat him
sooner than to be heraded as tie candi
date Of the Ghancicrs Of New York city.
Sherman would carry 10 material vote
in New York that Blaine would not,
while Blaine would carry 20 600 Irish
votes il New York city that Sherman
could not get Therefore, as between
these two, Blaine is much the stronger
in that pivotal State
Who is there who is intelligent aud
candid who does not believe that Ccve-
land during his administration has driy
en- off from his support ten times the
number Of his majority over Blaine?
There are his pension yetoes and his
rebel fag order; his fishing Decoration
Day; his sighting Of the memory of
Lincoln; the Garland scandal; the failure
to distribute the surplus revenue; the
failure to keep the promise to reduce the
tariff taxes; the Identification Of his adj
ministratioa with free trade; the treat
ment of Dakota; the failure to carry out
civil service reform; the Identification Of
the administration with the boodlers in
Baltimore, Cincinnati and New York;
the failure to bring the good old time,
that were promised; the dissatisfaction OF
those who expected and didn't etolHce-
these and many other things have made
enemies to his administration, while not
a thing has it accomplished that would
win vote that Mr.. Cleveland did not
carry in 1891. .l
Aside from these consider,.-<9nS, there
is the fact that there is no Republican
administration in power to work against
Blaine; there will be no Delmonico din
ner and no Burchard blunder, without
either of which Blaine would have been
elected in 1884.

Efect Of imprisonment.

To the ordinary mind, full Of busy
schemes and plans for future good, in
the many active and fruitful years
which people are so sure remain to
them, the condition Of one condemned
TO die ut the hands OF the law Is incon-
ceivable. TO the sick, oftimes the re-
straint which comes from their own
weakness, the irksomeness Of inactivity,
is harder TO bear than all the agonies OF
pain and disease. This il but the be-
ginning with the prisoner. Withdrawn
from all the interests Of the world, bAy-
ing no longer any part in humanity,
destined at fixed hour 10 have the
poor remnants Of his pale and shadowy
life choked out Of him at the hands Of
the race Of which he was once part, he
must eouEt the days and hours that re-
main to him till that agonixing moment
when he shall, before the IMPLYING
eyes Of the community he has wroDged, /,
wiithe out that wretehed existence, 70
which he yet as an animal clings. All
crime probably has an element Of insan-
ity in il There is something abnor-
NAL aud unbalanced, there Is 40 sense OF
proportion. 10 idea Of values. All
things are seen through a refracting
medium which strangely distorts aud
fslsifies them. But under the strain Of
prison life the sanest mind cannot long
retain its tone.
